the sweet strains of music as they
issued from the touch ofsome of
the most talented performers.
The occasion being, a musicale to
introduce to the people Of this
city the talented young viollnist,
Mr.. VIM. Cook. Mr.. Cook is a
young man of great promise, who
intends pursuing his studies in
Germany, and the reason for in
Producing him to the people of
this city is, that he needs their
help i'll pecuniary manner. Mr..
Cook is tall and slender in person,
wears his hair long, has dreamy
cast of couutenance, and is quick
in his movements. He plays
with a depth of feeling, and has
a delicate and artistic touch,
which if he continues to cultivate,
will eventually place him on the
topmost round of the ladder of
fame.
The exercises Wednesday night,
were simply grand. Mr.. Cook
was ably assisted by Misses Annie
Sprague, Sallie Waring, Lena
McKenny, Marcy Davis, the Or
pheus Glee Club. and Mr.. John

Mr.. J. NJ. Trotter and Hou. Jno.
II. Smythe. Mr.. Langston gave
a history of young Cook, and
characterized him as the greatest
violinist, Of his age, on the CONT

that his teacher in Oberlin Uni
versity said, "Willie, we can
teach you no more here, you
must 60 to Berlin" and ended in
an appeal to the audience to sup
port Mr.. Cook in the concert
which he shortly intends giving
Mr.. Trotter cautioned the audi
ence of the danger of fatterins
young talent, ending in beautiful
praise of Mr.. Cooks playing
Mr.. Smythe said, that he hat
heard four masters of the violin
and in his opinion Mr.. Cook wa
in fair way to rival them.
The audience then broke up
everyone pralslng Mr.. Cook, an
expressing wishes for his futur
success. Mr.. Cook leaves on th

which would have staggered her if she

seemed TO want him back; though it was

"Well, if you told her your mind in the

AT this juncture Mrs. Hemphill gave
way to tears, until the noise of wheels on
the gravel outside aroused them both, and
they looked out to see Jabez and Martha
both looking very happy in the buggy,
and Martha was not in mourning, and
something glittered on her wedding fln-
ger.
"Mother, father, let me introduce to
you Mrs. Martha Hemphil hope yor
will be pleased to form her acquaint-
ance."
''Plcased amt no word, Jabez,'' said
his mother, who caught happy little
Martha in her rather long arms, and the
father shook Jabez's hands like pump
handles, while he tried hard to speak
without tears.
After u while everything was explained,
and it was a merry Christmas dinner
to which they all sat down the next
day. AIRS. Hemphill, Sr., said she was
thankful above everything TINT Martha
had upheld her principle, ana she added
